Position of ECUK on Recognition of Washington Accord Bachelor's Degrees

Former Community Member

ECUK announced in the Washington Accord meeting 2015 to cease recognising Bachelor's degrees of the Washington Accord signatories.



Is there any update and implications?

  • I found the following from ECUK's website.



    The Engineering Council recognises engineering education programmes accredited by Washington Accord signatories as contributing to the education requirements for Chartered Engineer (CEng) registration. As the exemplifying academic requirement for Chartered Engineer registration is a Masters level qualification, the assessing institution may ask you to demonstrate further learning acquired through formal or informal learning. They may also ask you to demonstrate knowledge relevant to their discipline(s).



    *Students starting Washington Accord programmes from July 2015 onwards will be required to demonstrate learning to European Master's level when applying for Chartered Engineer registration.
